The collection was assembled over time by Charles Klotzer during his time at the St. Louis Journalism Review (SJR) and donated in ten record cartons. The cartons were separated into photographs, biography and vertical file clippings, and the legal battle between the St. Louis Post-Dispatch and the St. Louis Globe-Democrat. Within each box, materials were organized by name, title, or subject. The biography and vertical file clippings were integrated into the Biography Files Collection, the St. Louis Publications Collection, the St. Louis Radio Collection, or the St. Louis Television Collection so that parallel vertical files were not housed in two separate collections. Clippings related to the SJR were retained.
